smoking and usage

Over the last 24 hours or so my 4 week old White Widow has developed some yellowing and brown spots???????

I have no idea what has happened - nothing has changed in there. I gave her the tineyest amount of feed about 5 days ago, but diluted it to 5 times weeker than was sujjested, and gave about 10% of that solution, so must have been pretty week.....

Still on 18/6 light, PH is between 6.5 an 7. Watering lightly most days due to the fan drying out the soil. Heavier wattering every 2 - 3 days as needed.

Anyone have any clues as to what might be going on?

I was planning to plant out into its big pot today, would that help? Problem is the organic compost I have has gone mouldy - all covered in fur! Don't know if it is safe to use or not????

Agh - nothing is ever simple, is it?? lol

Cheers

if the leaves are turning yellow and curving downward you might be overwatering. i'm not a very experienced grower but I have heard about this many times. if the leaves start to curve upwards, thats nute burn.
thats all I know

yea maybe overwatering or PH problems id say

Do you own a soil pH meter (just a probe you stick in the soil?) Those things are terrible, that's why I ask. They are very innacurate.

I just had the same problem.
Turned out to be N deficiency.

I gave my plants nute burn once, so I was going very light on the ferts, and ended up creating a N deficiency. Just upped my ferts, and the problem went away. (the really yellow leaves couldn't be cured, but the yellowish green ones perked up)

Yeah - that's what I baught - figured it was better than the chemical kit I had where you had to compare the colour it turns.....

I'm going to transplant it to it's growing pot today - I'll retest everything as I go.

Thanks for the help all - I'll put some pics up if she picks up!
